The LRA is a graveyard for properties that went through rounds and rounds of public auction without any of the people there showing any interest. 

Look up the public records to see who legal the owners are.

During the evening, as my friends meet new people, they will invariably point at me and tell the person they just met "you need to talk to Linda, she knows about what the topic you just brought up", so my friends kind of funnel people to me a little bit as well.In the last 18 months, I've actually begun speaking in public. 

Make sure to shop around and connect with a variety of lenders in your area so they can explain the many different programs / loan options that are out there. 

You can establish the land trust and remove your name from the public filing as owner, allowing for some anonymity.

@Derek Daun, I don't believe PenFed's program would fit as you have too many properties, but I could be wrong.

That means my name is on the public filing upon creation, but transfers into the client’s name after the filing.

Always get a W9 from whomever you hire• Make sure you have them sign lien waivers before you give final payment• Check your city's court documents(public info and usually online) to ensure they don't have any judgements against them• Do not pay 50% up front.

The next one is Jan 22nd at the Groton Public Library at 6pm.

Sounds like you could use a little guidance, maybe try joining a coaching program.
